trinque: good a segue as any to:
mircea_popescu: "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew was a reality television show that aired on the cable network VH1 which chronicles a group of people as they are treated for alcohol and drug addiction by Dr. Drew Pinsky and his staff at the Pasadena Recovery Center in Pasadena, California. [...] In May 2013, Pinsky announced that season six was the final season, explaining that he was tired of the criticism leveled at him after celebrit
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: "But he went to a good school" - Famous last words, as far as I can tell also their Derp selection criteria. Best to head him off when he's weak least he Hearniate to a lager size

erg_: What is the consensus here as to how Bitcoin evolves?? It occurs to me these debates about the software become less relevant in the future
mircea_popescu: have some casual bondage as a prize. http://41.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mejsc2Q2NP1r8xnxlo1_1280.png
shinohai: I don't like all the "fluff" of the interwebs as much.
ShawnLeary: I had to admit it, but as a young man I spent time on FuryMUCK
shinohai: I ran a little citadel server for a while, which is about as basic of BBS as I can think of.
danielpbarron: and Eulora needs no such silly currency pass-through to have access to bitcoin, as it's currency du-jour is already bitcoin
mircea_popescu: the only way relaying as currently deployed may survive is if it somehow ends up in a compact with mining
mircea_popescu: and as luck usually goes, we wil lcome to regret it.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field for many reasons. such as for instance that we could see a situation where enemy controls 80% of hash and refuses to include your txn
mircea_popescu: ascii_field [...] such as ? << been thinking of a usable packaging for your convenience since i said that.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field what difference does it make ? technology pointedly makes no social difference, as per http://trilema.com/2012/anonimity-or-the-urban-versus-rural-dispute/#selection-201.223-209.0
jurov: ascii_field: yes that calls for enhancing the scrubber not for removing it as trinque said
trinque: decimation: I believe /dev/udp and /dev/tcp are bashisms which do not actually exist as a device node
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-07-2015#1219376 << such as ... ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-07-2015#1219170 << culture, generally. observation as ancient as the original cro-magnon / neanderthal divide. N the Ist famously made it, and look where it got him! ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 31-07-2015 03:12:24; BingoBoingo: mats: I'm still out on bond... as I have been since May 2013
assbot: Logged on 31-07-2015 02:33:54; BingoBoingo: So long as McDonalds has few corporate stores they have to staff and having staff at all is largely a franchisee problem McDonalds will automate for consistency (i.e. robogrill) instead of doing so to purely reduce labor.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-07-2015#1218967 << this is a good point. labour costs are not a problem per se - they're set as policy lever (and more effectiuve at controlling wage strucure in the us than any sort of law) ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-07-2015#1218822 << and why shouldn't they. as long as there's idiots with excess fat... ☝︎
decimation: asciilifeform: http://wtop.com/dc/2015/07/streets-closed-as-police-investigate-vehicle-crash-into-capitol-barricade/ < dc lulz for the day
asciilifeform: i think he'd rather move the packets with pencil and paper than so much as look at a 'cisco'
asciilifeform: incidentally, if one is optimizing for max performance on tiny data set, on an x86 pc, it is worth considering 'cache as ram mode'
asciilifeform: otherwise it doesn't matter where you put the buffer, so long as it gets used, whole, for every decode, with no further allocatory shenanigans
danielpbarron: not surprising that they are unknown, as scripture informs us that the world will hate the truth
danielpbarron: and He isn't afraid of homosexuals as the suffix "phobic" implies
danielpbarron: Jesus is the same God as the one in the old testament
danielpbarron: satan is not nearly as big of a deal as most people are lead to believe
shinohai: If that is true, then does that mean God is equal part Satan as well? I don't follow.
jurov: as i can't get it to work and nobody's using it, maybe that would be for the best
jurov: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-07-2015#1218903 as patch processing is part of scrubbing, easiest would be to just turn everything off and keep just ordinary mailing list ☝︎
BingoBoingo contemplating AMD A4-5000 machine as upgrade or complement to AMD 350 machine...
asciilifeform: decimation: the thing is about as readable as bitcoin
coderwill: mats: do you mean that as an insinuation that tails is not what it claims to be?
mats: I have no dramatic theories as to wut is going on (like alf) but I do not care at all about what he has to say
BingoBoingo: mats: I'm still out on bond... as I have been since May 2013 ☟︎
BingoBoingo: coderwill: I came this channel all cautious like because I was afraid of making a fool out of myself. Eventually I had used this nick long enough I identify as this more than I do as my USG imposed slave name.
coderwill: BingoBoingo: Not to change the topic, but have been wondering something, if you don't mind me asking - do you write under your alias as opposed to a real name for any particular reason?
BingoBoingo: As scoopy is down http://qntra.net/2015/07/wikileaks-stratfor-dump-contains-malware/
BingoBoingo: So long as McDonalds has few corporate stores they have to staff and having staff at all is largely a franchisee problem McDonalds will automate for consistency (i.e. robogrill) instead of doing so to purely reduce labor. ☟︎
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: given as the whole purpose of elbrus, to the extent it had one, is to be a non-nato computer
assbot: Logged on 30-07-2015 23:45:27; BingoBoingo: So, killing ophanage helps to seriously cut bitcoin memory usage on 0.7.3 much as it does on 0.5.3... Also CPU usage much flatter when keeping up aside from new block CPU storm

decimation: <+jurov> funkenstein_: shannon would apply if the intertubes were analog < shannon applies to intertubes, as his theory applies to all tranmission of information - you must expend energy to communicate and there is no infinitely reliable channel
ben_vulpes: scam, as always
SuchWow: as always :)
shinohai: We should help preserve as many lions as possible, IMO. What else are we gonna feed all the Xstians to?
ascii_field: such as losing bits when the mains current flickers
ascii_field: phf: for so long as it runs on a consumer pc, it will exhibit the braindamage characteristic to the pc.
trinque: I've taken the size of the network as one of the things ensuring its continued existence.
ascii_field: as will the tape deck and a piece of 'scotch'
trinque turns the death metal on again, fitting as it is
ascii_field: trinque: you speak as if this thing didn't eat enough ram and weren't slow enough
trinque: as always, it depends
mircea_popescu: anyway, be that as it may, i
kakobrekla: yeah i better shutup as im always behind.
mircea_popescu: well... honestly, if one takes the stand that mcd is not really food, that same one'd be hard pressed to count neoprotestant lols as religion.
mircea_popescu: might as well say "any kid today knows nkr is <<a country>>".
trinque: strikes me as nothing more than internal politics
shinohai: May as well drink before Kim eliminates me: http://english.pravda.ru/news/world/30-07-2015/131527-kim-0/
shinohai: I imagine mine are still sitting around waiting for the world to end, and trying to force-feed as much of that nonsense to others as possible.
trinque: as for myself, I was more dead than alive when I plopped into this world, so this is all bonus time
trinque: ascii_field | on third hand coming out of alien chest, i readily recognize that i probably ought to have been killed at age 7 or so << plenty of intelligent people had all kinds of health problems; surely there are reasons other than "fit as a viking" to live
trinque: jurov: as for the culling, wouldn't that be up to the parents that clearly decided to let you live? heh
phf: using linux kernel as the base allows for rapid repurposing of cheap chinese computers, without having to write drive controllers or general kernel hackery. in case of suckless it was probably more to do with audiocards and inertia. at the time when the suckless project started, it wasn't yet obvious how compromised kernel will eventually become, the reaction was mostly to userspace retardation
trinque: the rotor problem mod6 and I ran into was simple as can be
mircea_popescu: anyway, the only way to solve this problem is of course ppp, ie pay per packet. and the only way to even run an internet at all is as a blockchain, which is to say mempool and all that.
asciilifeform: same as mine
mircea_popescu: decimation for as long as no one uses it.
decimation: okay, let's imagine a new 'mpdp' that is the same as udp except carries an extra bit to indicate whether the bearer is an idiot
asciilifeform: but will point out that the million-chump botnet can just as easily transmit syn flood as udp crud
asciilifeform: my isp clearly did not get defrauded in the same way as mircea_popescu's - because their six-figure machine does not as a result go down
mircea_popescu: as decent as it gets = 500x line saturation three hops upstream.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as decent as it gets (line saturation)
kakobrekla: as far as i can tell the attacker of qntra (trilema?) is the same as it was of bitbet last ddos.
mircea_popescu: it being written is the problem. as always.
mircea_popescu: i'd count this as a plus.
asciilifeform: not as theoretical as mircea_popescu might think
mircea_popescu: getting EVERYONE to entirely drop udp as a matter of policy would be a huge gain for me.
asciilifeform: as tcp forces.
asciilifeform: ddos only exists because of usg. as in, deliberate decision to route maladdressed packets, infrastructurally.
decimation: in fact, you need not put the true address of the recipient in the ip header as long as you can arrange to be somewhere to 'hear' it
asciilifeform: and 4) isn't readily and easily flagged and filtered as 't3rr0r1st net' by 90% of world's isp
asciilifeform: what i'd really like to see is what mircea_popescu proposes i use for single-packet auth that 1) isn't udp 2) existing net will reliably route 3) existing os will agree to emit without any new code running as root
asciilifeform: the only way it could possibly work as it presently does is by storing ~some~ history
lobbes: it should use the url as a PK
mircea_popescu: does your restart fuck up the rss feed, such as by altering the dates it displays ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i haven't any notion as to ~why~
mircea_popescu: just as soon as the economics make sense, your x86 nemesis is gone. two years, tops.
mircea_popescu: i imagine as long as "9 volt batteries or hunt rats by candlelight" is the choice, there's going to be a lot of "9 volt" systems out there too.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ergo, for so long as anyone has the choice of '120v or hunt rats by candlelight', there will be 120v around
mircea_popescu: lmao check it out, liberia as well. that poor country.
asciilifeform: which is precisely twice as probably on 120v as 240
asciilifeform: as far as the machines are concerned, this is actually true
mircea_popescu: as the bear was getting ready to stomp the anthill, the anthill in question was very animated by the following political debate : some ants wanted to tear down one wall, while some other ants thought this is stupid.
mircea_popescu: if you think the dispute as to how internet won't be available in the future in the us comes down to what anyone wants, usg or not usg...
